So sad to hear of Jim's passing. I remember many fun days as kids with him down at our places on Catawba Island. Sending my heartfelt condolences to his family

Good friend and neighbor for many years. I cannot thank you enough for all the times you walked across the street to share a story, lend a hand but more often just give advice. But what I liked best was that the stories and conversations led to more and more and then...it was too late to finish that chore I was working on. So I'd get a beer and a DR Pepper for you and we'd sit 'til Chris came home. You will be missed!!! and indeed GO BUCKS!!!!
